Today was another kind of wasted day. A few pieces to finish framing, a few painting socks to sew, then boxing up the pieces and deciding which to take. It would be great to take all the pieces but there isn't room in the van. And I can't sell that much! Then, with the break in the weather, we opted to load the van today, rather than tomorrow. More snow expected and that just makes for sloppy loading. Loading on a snowy driveway was bad enough. Packing the dog stuff for her trip to Bill's and packing clothes for the show and sunscreen and all those things I don't use here in the winter (except on the face which is usually the only thing in the sunlight these days!) That was most of my day. Still, though, got the dog walked and managed to create this piece. It is 12 by 12 on paper. I'm really happy with it. I might tell Jacqui it is a dawn, but in reality it was based on a photo of dusk! Off sometime tomorrow to get part way to Scottsdale. We'll finish the drive on Thursday and get there in time to set up the booth. I'll try to post while I'm there!

I love this one! The ruts in the road, the old wooden rail fence. One of my favorite be it dawn or dusk. Though a red sky in the morning means storms coming.

ReplyDeleteHello! I'm not sure how you feel about blog awards but I just nominated you for a "Sunshine Award". You can find out more on my blog. Have a great day.
ReplyDeleteThe movement of this piece created by the fence and the ruts in the dirt road are striking. Very classic "Cavan" but also seems to be different as well. LOVE IT!
